One, two, three, four
This is it, here I stand
I'm the light of the world
I'll feel grand
Got this love, I can feel
And I know, yes for sure
It is real

And it feels as though I've seen your face one thousand times
And you said you really know me too yourself
And I know that you have got addicted with you eyes
But you say you're gonna leave it for yourself
Oh
I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on baby just understand

This is it
I can say
I'm the light of your world
Run away
We can feel
This is real
Every time I'm in love that I feel

And I feel as though I've known you since a thousand years
And you tell me that you've seen my face before
And you said to me that you don't want me hanging around
Many times wanna do it here before
Oh yeah
I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on baby just understand

This is it
I can feel
I'm to light up the world
This is real
Feel my song
We can say
And I tell you can feel that way

And I feels as though I've known you for a thousand years
And you said you saw my face yourself
And you said want to go with you on a while
And I know that it's really for myself
Oh yeah
I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on please dear understand

I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on dear please understand
Oh yeah

These lyrics were written some 20+ years ago so not the last song at all. And there's more to download which didn't make it on to his albums - Escape, If You Don't Love Me, Gangsta, Nite Line, Starlight Sun...go and check 'em out!!!

General Commentthis song is kind of underrated, i think it is beautiful...people said he kind of lost it but i think he had it in him this whole time and was just waiting for the right moment to bless us with his presence

Song Meaning"This is it" should say enough, every word is clear and the message very simple but the hard thing for some more about what some WANT to hear and interprate than just LISTEN to the meaning "This is IT"

General CommentThough it's clear that the song is not finished from Michael's hand it's a beautiful song.
Not his best, but certinly not his worst either.
A sweet and sentimental song that I think will fit perfect at the end credits of the movie.
It's sure to bring out a tear or two.

um, this whole song is obvious as to what the lyrics are. I don't see the first line as right, and I didn't bother to read the rest, as I put no validity in people's statements unless they are fully true. Listen for yourself, the outtake is very clear.
